this captured the sentiment of my first reaction as well

I love how this redirects attention from familiar patterns in a wholesome direction

enjoyed the article. this was both fascinating from a technical perspective, and repulsive from a food perspective

on the bright side, maybe this zero-shot classifier wave could be the back bone for more specialized classifiers (with more mindful selection of data and training)

I just heard about this company for the first time. the energy does feel inspiring

I love this energy, and love how it seems to be resonating with others too. seems a more whole and life-giving than the intellectual EA vibe

excellent interactive education content. this reminded me of the steam engine exhibits at the science museum in London

yeah agreed, let's normalize "show me the weights" in this era

the Singaporean government is often described as having a "parental" approach. I guess this move would be on brand

yeah this would be one interpretation where "winner take all" could still be right. though with the recent accelerating release cadence, doesn't it seem like the head start / lead has been shrinking over time?

I have a similar thought too each time I walk past piles of discount books.

I'm in the camp that perhaps it's healthy to not grasp onto every bit of information. that some artifacts dying a natural death is maybe just the way things are

yeah noticed the same. I wonder if this will be a recurring theme for model releases: each release specializes on a set of headline benchmarks, along with regression in benchmarks that are less of a priority

this observation is insightful and worth calling out. this paints the picture of a future I'm not excited about

I enjoyed it! for a big corporation, that's a well-executed video

this is great foundational content! I also enjoyed his earlier appearance on 3Blue1Brown

I feel you. not sure if the "Glimmer" (of hope) branding is intentional to capture this vibe

the Ken Liu story linked in the article is actually spot on. would recommend giving that a quick read

I laughed. underrated comment

you beat me lol

this reminds me of this other flavor of "program as weights" I saw few months ago, putting deterministic programs inside the weights of an LLM

quite a few people I know consume edibles as the main form of cannabis. but it seems underrepresented in all the studies I've seen so far. as several others have pointed out, you would think the act of smoking would itself have nontrivial effects on health

same. the older I get, the more I appreciate the "middle of the world" attitude in classical Chinese teachings. there's no single approach that's always / universally right. so it's wise to avoid going to the extreme in any direction

this seems like a chain of good practices. though I find it hard to stay disciplined about keeping commits well scoped and well described

Written a while ago but spot on

> AI can hallucinate, but I've been misdiagnosed by humans so many times too...

I've heard this experience from quite a few folks before, but this is my first time hearing about a mandatory 8 months quarantine as a consequence... damn

how representative are Semgrep's benchmarks? everyone seems to have their own benchmark these days (guess it's good "content marketing") I'm honestly losing track

agreed. we should normalize this level of skepticism/scrutiny for all claims from big AI labs

yeah smells AI generated to me too

haha same! "# new tabs opened" is a poetic metric

wow didn't realize background noise can get so sophisticated haha
